Mark lives locally with his family and has worked in a local practice since 1986. He has acted for a wide range of clients in all industries with turnovers from £10,000 to £100m, preparing their accounts and giving tax planning advice.
His life long interest in cars and the motor industry has led him to act for a number of motor dealerships. He has also looked after many property based businesses from residential developers to hotels and has been involved in the raising of many millions of pounds for projects.
Mark spent a year out at a company in the early 1990s, running their finance
function and arranging banking facilities. 
This gave him a rare insight to
what it is like to run a business and to deal with auditors – and he
hopes this makes him more sympathetic to his clients today!
He has lived in Old Basing for virtually all his life and enjoys spending time with his family, watching football and cycling to keep fit.

Chris has been looking after clients, predominately in the agricultural sector for over 20 years. His clients range from small tenanted family farms to the larger estate. Many have diversified greatly over the years in order to maximise their use of resources. This can entail simply letting a property to a family member running a separate business.
As well as providing cost effective annual accounting and tax compliance services to his clients, Chris specialises in tax and succession planning for family businesses. The business structure is particularly important where diversifications take place. He is also very experienced in Capital Tax planning matters including inheritance tax and the use of family trusts.
He was born and bred in East Sussex on the family farm where his 
parents
and one brother still farm today. His other brother farms near Chichester
whilst Chris and his immediate family migrated further west and have lived
near Alton for many years. In his spare time Chris enjoys getting out in
the fresh air with his family and dog either on the land or water.
